Hi ,

I would like to know how to activate the forgotten password in Umbraco backoffice, so that i can receive an email where i can find my password or is it just for show?.

Are you running the site on your local machine? I was only able to change password once I hosted it on an external server.

i m running the site on iis of a local machine so that my clients can test , still didn't host it , if it's just a problem with hosting that would be great but i m not so sure about it.

I am having the same poblem. I have forgotten the password, the site is on a online webhotel, but Umbraco is not responding. Is there a way to get into the site then when Umbraco is not responding. I have the .sdf database as a local copy!

Hi John,

have you added your SMTP settings to the web.config?

John, peace be upon those who follow guidance.

Refer to this for how to reset password via email.

@Lars, in case you have a copy of db try to modify the password via a tool that allows sql query and run the following query after changing the id.

New password: 3214789650 , tested on V8 8.0.1
```
UPDATE umbracoUser set userdisabled=0, userPassword='J94H0MGTTQ3Mx3HWHeLh3A==1CVHtebxZSrTlVdwc/xPfcxcr6Qqej3GvnT3wXrYvyE=' where id=-1
```

I have done what it says in the link, but with no luck.

The link "Forgot password" now shows, but when I enter e-mail and press the button, nothing happens.

These are my settings in Web.config:
```
<system.net>
    <mailSettings>
        <smtp from="[email protected]">
          <network host="smtp.unoeuro.com" port="587" userName="[email protected]" password="MyPassword" />
        </smtp>
    </mailSettings>
</system.net>
```
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Have you tried to use smtp4dev and use localhost application to receive the link ?
1. Install smtp4dev and run it.
2. Change the web.config to localhost.
I found more details on Umbraco login issue in this post.
